Lyrics
C F C C7
B-lues stay away from me
F C
B-lues why don't you let me be
G7 C
Don't know why you keep on haunting me
F C C7
L-ove was never meant for me
F C
True love was never meant for me
G7 C
Seems somehow we never can agree
F C C7
L-ife is full of misery
F C
Dreams are like a memory
G7 C
Bringing back your love that used to be
F C C7
T-ears so many I can't see
F C
Years don't mean a thing to me
G7 C
Time goes by and still I can't be free
G7 C
Time goes by and still I can't be free
